On the first day of the second week working on our bench
project, we concentrated on drawing out and cutting our stencils, which we
would use to create the shapes on the bench. It took us a couple of tries to get the right
look, and to figure out which shapes complimented each other the best, but
eventually we chose four different, very simple, and non objective shapes that
worked very well together.
On the second day of the second week, we experimented
with spray paint and used our cut out stencils to practice on big sheets of
paper to try and get an idea of how the layout of all of the shapes would look,
and to see how we would use the space that the bench gave us. The most
complicated part of the stencils was trying to figure out how the spray paint
can stencil would fit onto the bench because we made it a bit too large and we
needed to improvise and cut some pieces shorter so that it fit on the bench. We
also made a list of the colors we wanted for our bench design, and we prepared
for the presentation the following Wednesday.
